hey everyone! i havent been getting out hardly at all so far this year, its been super cold and the ground has been frozen like cement. we have had two days in the 50s and was hoping the ground in the woods would be somewhat diggable. it was tough going but you could get it done. i went to a park that (as always) has been hammered by many many others over the years, but this place always seems to come through and it came through today in a big way! i had been hunting for a few hours with nothing to show, and i decided to give it another hour. i hit a silver Roosevelt dime and thought "maybe my luck is changing". about 10 feet over i found a 43 Washington Quarter, then about 15 minutes later i get a good signal. out pops a 39 Walking Liberty Half! i was stoked! after rechecking the hole there was still something there. i dig a little further and out pops another one! a 1918! two Walkers in the same hole! i called my brother to tell him and naturally he wants to come down to hunt as well! after about 15 minutes, he finds a 1909 O Barber Quarter! not a bad way to get the years first silver! :thumbsup:

Hey,

You can go to the root folder of the picture and just rename the file type. IE: Change (Photo.imp) to (Photo.jpg) or you can get a file converter downloaded freeware from the internet.

Awesome silver finds,

Keep @ it and HH!!
 
Two Walkers in one hole, not fair!!! LOL

Congrats on the great finds. Let's see a pic of that Barber quarter!
